Summary

I was inspired to create this model for my grade 8 math class, and is a remix of the design by Isos, the chain for the smaller square prints assembled and will ensure that no pieces are lost in your classroom! The model is of the Pythagorean Triple with sides of 3 cm, 4 cm, and 5 cm.

Be sure to share any models you make.

UPDATE
I have added an improved base, that will allow you to assemble into one piece - you won't have to look for the chain or square again!

This illustrates physically that A^2+B^2=C^2.
The two short sides of the triangle have sides of 3cm and 4cm.
The sliding square piece is 4^2 (a physical square)
The chain parts make a 3x3 square, and can be wrapped around the 4x4 square to make the 5x5 square for the "C" hypotenuse side of the triangle.
